>It may be that Allah will ordain love between you and those of them with whom ye are at enmity. Allah is Mighty, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. Allah forbiddeth you not those who warred not against you on account of religion and drove you not out from your homes, that ye should show them kindness and deal justly with them. Lo! Allah loveth the just dealers. Allah forbiddeth you only those who warred against you on account of religion and have driven you out from your homes and helped to drive you out, that ye make friends of them. Whosoever maketh friends of them - (All) such are wrong- doers.

Maturidi creed: upholding the doctrine of free will and natural law, Maturidis place high value on reason, science and classical philosophy. Their jurisprudence is Hanafi. The Maturidi "Summa" is Tabsirat al-Adilla

Ash'ari creed: denying efficient causation and natural law, Ash'aris subscribe to decisionism and consider esoteric teachings of the Sufis to be the focal truth of Islam (although someone from any creed can pursue Sufism and many do, Muhammad Taqi Usmani is a major Maturidi Sufi Shaykh). Ash'ari jurisprudence includes two schools, Shafi'i and Maliki. The Ash'ari "Summa" is "Iyha Ulum al-Din"


Athari Creed: rejecting layers of interpretation of the Qur'an, Atharis believe the text only has one meaning and that meaning is plain. Their school of jurisprudence is Hanbali. The Athari "Summa" is Ibn Taymiyya's "Kitab al Iman"

What strain or strains of Islam can we expect our neoliberal technocratic bureau-lords to select and cultivate as the means of producing a western-friendly slide toward consumerist atheist nihilism among the adherents of the last instantiation of monotheism possessing world-historical relevancy?

I don't think any madhhab or aqidah could be feasibly cultivated to that end, they more just try to reduce Islam to an ethnic identity.

Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems fair and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a non-white world where what lies ahead is genocide and justice. Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. Great clown Naziacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up.' Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor…I am Naziacci.' Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains
